• Kevin joined the brilliant crew behind the incredibly hilarious “Shaun of the Dead” when in London to jaw about the upcoming Star Wars flick, the final prequel, Episode III. The 7 page interview is hilarious and worth your valuable screen scanning time. Some snippets:

Empire: You guys are all film-makers. Is that something that would excite you? Maybe in a TV series… there was talk, Kevin, of you doing a TV show.

Kevin: Doing the TV show? Absolutely.

Empire: And maybe getting a story each and doing it over an episode…

Kevin: But would you be allowed to do that? That’s the big question. No TV show is ever going to work unless that dude says ‘go, do whatever you want. I’m done.’ He maintains that he’s done now that he’s told… it used to be nine and now it’s down to six, and probably rightfully so, because where do you go after Jedi? The Empire is vanquished.

Odd News Askew trivia: William Hootkins, the actor who Kevin jokes about and played “Porkins” in the original Star Wars Episode IV, was the subject of our very first website when learning to code — A tribute to him titled “The Red 6 Memorial”. It’s since gone to code heaven. We only wish we had it to show you.

Tons of great jokes and conversation for Kevin fans and Star Wars fans alike in this piece, so don’t miss it, Check the entire transcript out at Empire UK! Sure, it’s more Star Wars than Askew we’d say, but who the hell doesn’t have Star Wars fever at the moment? HURRY UP EPISODE III!!!!
